"More protein, less sugar... no cravings!": Lori
August 25, 2024
When Lori was growing up in Los Angeles, she loved all cookies, deserts, and ice cream. Every week when she got her allowance, she spent it on candy and ice cream.
Before she knew it she was getting chubby, she says. And she reached 200lbs and started suffering from depression.
Her mom tried to help her to lose weight and baked her Atkin’s low carb bread, and Lori was able to get her weight down to about 150lbs.
But Lori's weight loss battle had just begun, and her weight yo-yo'd. Like many of us, she was told not to eat fat, but sugar was okay to eat. So she continued to struggle with her weight, and got up to 225lbs in her mid 30s.
Lori was desperate. After much reading and research, she discovered keto and never looked back. By cutting sugar and wheat and eating more protein and healthy fats, Lori lost 100 lbs and has kept it off.
At 61 years old, she says she feels better than in her 20s! As a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Lori's mission is to serve and educate women over 50 to be empowered to choose health for natural weight loss.
